A 10-month Regenerative Organic Agriculture Certificate Program is the first regenerative agriculture program in the US and includes hands-on farming experience. The course is being offered at the Maharishi University of Management (MUM) as part of their Bachelor’s in Sustainable Living.

Carbon Underground Co-Founder Tom Newmark will be a member of the guest faculty.

The program is designed for a diversity of participants, including organic farmers, food advocates, food system leaders, entrepreneurs, farm-to-table advocates, and slow food movement activists.

The program will be led by Dr. Appachanda Thimmaiah, a lifelong advocate for low-cost organic farming solutions worldwide and advisor to international organizations, agri-business corporations, governments and NGO’s in India, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Italy, Holland, and Costa Rica. He facilitated Bhutan’s transition to the world’s first 100% organic and carbon neutral nation.
